FocusedValues / FocusedKeyValue
I have an app with multiple Windows, but hardly any "input" field. I want to control certain stuff via Menu (FocusedValues / FocusedKeyValue)... first I thought: this does not work at all... then I figured: If I write in a text field something.. then the focus is clear and the proper windows is targeted.. Just bringing the other window to focus (no edit nothing, just clicking on the window header) does not seem to trigger "hey.. I'm the focus now"... anyone experiencing the same? could I "fake" that? thinking of putting a very small text field so when I focus a windows, I could like, don't know: focus that input field such that the menu command realises: ah.. here's the windows I need to talk to...

Localized version of Application = Spam??
Hey there! Faced a strange problem. We're a board game publisher, not quite experienced in publishing digital applications. However one of our games needs a digital app that already exists in AppStore. It is not possible to localize it ro our language, so we agreed with Rights Owners that we will develop the localized version ourselves and publish it in Store. The localized App is quite different from the original one: not only language, but a whole new part of the game exists. However Apple keeps declining our App considering it a spam. We tried everything to put that into consideration, but got nothing. Any lifehacks how to get this going? Is there anything they look at in particular, any tips what can we change quickly to finally publish the App?

MacOS 26.4 beta “Failed to prepare software update”
I have received this installation error attempting to upgrade from MacOS 26.4 beta 2 to beta 3 on my Intel 2020 27” iMac, and now trying to install beta 4 from beta 3 on my M1 Max MBP. I have seen from a sprinkling of post that some others have had the same issue. I was able to successfully perform the 2 to 3 upgrade on the iMac in safe boot, suggesting possible compatible, third-party app. But that did not work for beta 4 on either device. I have submitted feedback for each episode. Any others have this issue? Unusual for Apple, I have never had any issues installing beta software before.

Resources for hardware developers?
Good morning, Apple devs. I'm looking for resources and help designing a BLE hardware peripheral that is compatible with iOS and iPad. I've seen the MFi program, but I've also seen plenty of peripheral devices that work with iOS and iPad that are not listed in the MFi compatibility lists. Can anyone refer me to the proper channels to get support for development of a hardware device? Thank you.

Calls on Assistive Access not working
I recently got a new iPhone for my mom so that she could have Assistive Access due to her declining cognitive health. I selected the family members she calls the most as her favorites, but when attempting to call some of said family members (myself included), nothing happens. It works for about half the contacts, and not for the other half. I’m her main caregiver so it’s pretty ironic that I’m one of the ones it doesn’t work with. I’ve tried exiting and re-entering Assistive Access, deleting and re-adding all the contacts, restarting the phone, force-restarting the phone, and checking if the iOS is the most recent update (it is). Nothing works. Please help.

Terminal.app crashes with Japanese IME input when text wraps to next line
Environment: macOS 26.3 (25D125) Terminal.app 2.15 (466) Apple Silicon Input method: Japanese (Romaji) - built-in Kotoeri Issue: Terminal.app crashes consistently when typing Japanese text using the built-in Japanese input method (Romaji) and the input line wraps beyond the terminal width. Steps to Reproduce: Open Terminal.app with default profile (Basic) Set terminal window width to ~80 columns Start typing Japanese text using macOS built-in Japanese input (Romaji) Continue typing until the text wraps to the next line Wait a few seconds after the wrap occurs Terminal.app crashes Key info from crash report: Crash thread name: (input method 992 com.apple.inputmethod.Kotoeri.RomajiTyping) ASI: BUG IN CLIENT OF LIBMALLOC: memory corruption of free block Exception: EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP) Stack trace involves: IMKInputSession_Modern setMarkedText → SendTextInputEvent → NSTextInputContext The crash occurs in _xzm_xzone_malloc_freelist_outlined called from _CFRuntimeCreateInstance → __CFStringCreateImmutableFunnel3 → +[NSString stringWithUTF8String:] Notes: Does NOT occur with paste input, only with live IME typing Does NOT occur with ASCII-only input Reproducible multiple times per week with normal Japanese usage iTerm2 does not exhibit this issue The crash appears to be a use-after-free or buffer miscalculation in Terminal.app's handling of marked text (未確定文字列) during line wrapping Has anyone else experienced this? Any known workarounds other than switching to iTerm2?

Technical Inquiry: User-Centric Accounting and Multiple Concurrent Subscriptions
We are developing a platform (Ferve) where users subscribe to individual artists to access exclusive content. We use a user-centric remuneration model: each artist has an independent income pool, and funds from a specific subscription must be attributed solely to that artist. We have two critical challenges regarding our integration: Granular Financial Reporting for User-Centric Payouts As the Merchant of Record, Apple provides aggregate Financial Reports. However, these reports do not provide a breakdown of taxes, commissions, or exact exchange rates used for individual transactionId records. Though we can keep records of each transaction in our database, thus linking them with which artist they belong to, we are unable to collect fees/taxes applied to each individual transaction. Because our payouts are artist-specific, we need to deduct the exact regional taxes and Apple commissions from each transaction to calculate the artist's due balance. Currently, we can only see the final consolidated balance in BRL (Brazilian Reals) at the end of the month. Is there an API or report that provides the net proceeds and tax breakdown per transaction ID? How can we retrieve the exact exchange rate applied to foreign currency sales (e.g., EUR to BRL) before the final consolidation? Supporting Multiple Concurrent Subscriptions Our current App Store Connect configuration uses a single 'Subscription Group' for all artist 'Clubs' since they share the same price points. However, we have found that users cannot subscribe to more than one product within the same group simultaneously (the App Store treats this as an upgrade/downgrade). On our platform, a user must be able to subscribe to Artist A and Artist B at the same time. What is the recommended architecture for this? Should we dynamically create a unique Subscription Group for every artist onboarded to our platform? If we use unique groups, is there a limit to the number of Subscription Groups one app can have? We appreciate the help, Ferve

OSX Mailbox Rebuild Stuck
Problems searching in mail after upgrade to Tahoe 26.4 Beta (25E5218f). Removing the index files and requesting rebuild results in a hung rebuild process. In the activity monitor I see Indexing... and a bar that is stuck at 0%. I have rebooted and restarted mail. No change. I was able to rebuild the spotlight search, and it is working properly.

iPad 13 (M3 (Cellular)) Bug Problem
I would like to know if this problem only affects me or others as well. Since the latest version of iPadOS, my eSIM no longer works, or rather, I have no mobile data. It worked with the previous version, but since I updated, mobile data (Internet) no longer works. When I open Safari, the window " Mobile data network could not be activated. You do not have a mobile data plan. Use Wi-Fi or open the mobile data options in "Settings". Any Recommendations? Thank you all

Beta Update Killed Mini M4
I dutifully upgraded my software (beta) on Feb. 24 when prompted. I could not get the computer to reboot, then after about 5 hours on the phone with, I think, 4 techs, they told me the only solution was to wait for the next update - I could not go backwards to the regular version. So $1,299 later I have a new Mac Mini M4! I have to work, so it was the only solution. What do I win?

SSC 2026 — Will unlisted .mlmodel cause build failure?
Hi, I submitted my Swift Student Challenge 2026 app and I'm worried about a build error I got when testing. I have both PlateClassifier_2.mlmodel and PlateClassifier_2.mlmodelc in my Sources folder. Only the .mlmodelc is listed in my Package.swift resources. When building I got: PlateClassifier_2.mlmodel: No predominant language detected. Set COREML_CODEGEN_LANGUAGE to preferred language. Build failed — 1 error Will judges hit this same error? Does having an unlisted .mlmodel alongside the .mlmodelc cause a hard build failure on other machines too, or is this specific to my setup (Xcode 26.2 beta, building to physical device)? Will this get me instantly disqualified? Any help appreciated.
